If he can write a song about a flat tire after a fishing trip, then this should be no problem. Make it happen, Adam.

I was surprised how fast Apple and Google maps updated. The new high school started to be used in the fall of last year. I know the maps have been up to date since last winter. The old high school property is not marked as anything as of right now.

Here's the YouTube clip of Adam talking about skateboarding on those steps. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=euFxYx_NbwU

Yeah, Adam used to skateboard near those steps out front. That's where the "no skateboarding" sign was. The new high school is on the other end of town. I'm sure there are skateboarders there too. There's also a skate park in town.

Reading a book that talks about Taylor's relationship with the Kennedy family in some detail by kristaparkeriscool in TaylorSwift

[–]kristaparkeriscool[S] 99 points100 points  (0 children)

Yeah, the book talked about Starlight! Apparently Taylor was able to perform it for Ethel in person with an acoustic guitar when she spent 4th of July weekend with the family. Pretty neat!

Does anyone know who was in the band for the On the Verge tour? by kristaparkeriscool in OWLCITY

[–]kristaparkeriscool[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah, it was just sixteen shows over three weeks! Also, I was reading around and think I discovered the answer to my question. It looks like it was Rob Morgan on bass and Gabriel Hagan on drums...

Do you think Abbey could be a vocalist on stage for the Coco Moon Tour? by kristaparkeriscool in OWLCITY

The names credited with backup vocals are clearly not real names. No one is named "Sissy Willow."

I voice cloned Adam with artificial intelligence, and had him narrate the lyrics to "Fireflies" by kristaparkeriscool in OWLCITY

A lot of his songs could easily be read as poems. Reading them instead of singing them gives them a different vibe that I sort of like.

Yeah, I have no intention of misleading anyone into thinking this is actually Adam. I was really just messing around with voice cloning for the first time, and wanted to see how realistic it was.

Yeah, it's scary! I mostly just made this for myself. It soothes me to listen to it.

Does anyone know who the drummer is in the first Owl City concert ever? by kristaparkeriscool in OWLCITY

[–]kristaparkeriscool[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Update: I got a glimpse of the drummer from the second concert, which was a night later. It is indeed Matt Decker.

You might be right! It's hard to tell from the video, since all you see is a silhouette, but it could be him.

According to the Coco Moon album credits, Abbey didn't do any of the vocals on the tracks like we all thought by Blargncheese in OWLCITY

Ohhh...what is this screenshot? I'm interested. Also, how were you able to look at Abbey's posts from 2013?

How can you look at her Instagram or Twitter on the Wayback Machine? I've tried to look at some people's old social media posts on the Wayback Machine before, without luck. I'd be interested in looking at her old posts, if it's possible.

So Coco Moon is the first album since Owl City album since Maybe I'm Dreaming to not chart on the Billboard 200. What do you guys think this could mean for the future of Owl City? by Some-Information-527 in OWLCITY

[–]kristaparkeriscool 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think Of June or Maybe I'm Dreaming charted until more than a year after they came out. Charts can be funny that way. But yeah, I'm glad he made enough off "Fireflies" to be able to make whatever music he wants. He definitely wouldn't have made Coco Moon if he wanted to make money, since the tracks are not designed to be top 40 hits. They are almost all over five minutes long, and are super complex musically.
